Cache to Eagle is a program started by the Boy Scouts to increase interest in Geocaching. This program is springing up all over the country. The goal is to Cache to Eagle caches in every District, of every Council where Boy Scouts is in place.
The caches in this series are to recognize projects boys have completed in the Mission District of the San Diego-Imperial Council. Mission District covers from Point Loma to San Carlos, Tierrasanta to Downtown San Diego. Our Council covers all of San Diego and Imperial Counties, all the way from the Pacific Coast to the Arizona border.
Each cache contains one of twelve points of the Boy Scout Law (to be found inside the top). An explanation of the Boy Scout Law may be found at (Visit Link).
Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts, Venture Scouts and Sea Cadets interested in earning a special "Cache to Eagle" patch may take note of which point of the Boy Scout Law is on the top of each cache's log sheet. To earn the patch, be sure to record which part of the Scout Law is written on each cache and then fill out the form here: (Visit Link).
Eagle is the highest rank a Boy Scout can attain. It encompasses many years of learning about the outdoors, many nights camping, and teaches abilities to lead others. Built into the program is community service, which a Scout must plan, coordinate, execute, and report for their Eagle project.
This cache highlights a project completed by a Life Scout in Troop 500 from Point Loma. His project was to construct 112 feet of split rail wood fence and relocating the existing rock border along the ridge of a hill next to a dirt path at the Point Loma Native Plant Garden. He spent 114 hours planning, coordinating, fund raising, and managing scouts and volunteers to complete the task.
Please leave Boy/Cub/Venture Scout/Sea Cadet swag if possible. To learn more about Boy Scouts and the great things they do, please visit (Visit Link).
